10 Home Remedies For Eye Infections
Home Remedy #5: Saline Solution
A saline solution is basically nothing more than salt water. It is a mild antiseptic and is even used in hospitals to help sterilize equipment. Its antiseptic properties mean that it can also be useful in helping to clear up an eye infection.
To make a saline solution, simply add 1 teaspoon of salt to 1 cup of water. You should then boil the water before letting it cool down. The solution should then be used to help rinse the eye. You should do this two or three times a day. Remember to use distilled water where possible to be sure there are no impurities in the water.
